how to do footers

how to do footers

[Mehul Sanghvi]

I know that Org can do foot notes using fn:xxx but what I wanted to do
was put a
footer to every page that is created.  It would be the same thing on each page.

How would I do that ?  Either I missed it in the manual or it is not there.

If this for LaTeX, you get into that realm vs. org-specific, in my
opinion (though some may suggest tailoring the org export innards).
Check out the following:

Here's an example from a recent paper for work. I have this below my
#+options lines and before the first headline:
-----
#+begin_latex
\pagestyle{fancy}
\setlength{\headheight}{0pt}
\setlength{\footskip}{40pt}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\fancyhf{}
\cfoot{\thepage}
\rfoot{\includegraphics[height=7.4pt]{/path/to/company-logo.jpg} Confidential}
\newpage
#+end_latex

You need to create the Footer from within LibreOffice. 

For applying custom styles with footer images you can see this thread.

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-03/msg01460.html

Note that the odt file in that thread has a header image as opposed to a
footer image.
